I graduated from Vanderbilt University in 2014. I received my Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education and Child Studies. I graduated from Vanderbilt with teaching licensure for Pre-K through third grade in the state of Tennessee. I am originally from New York so, while I loved living in Nashville, I decided that I wanted to move back to New York to receive my Master's degree. I am currently attending Teachers College, Columbia University and I am in a dual Elementary Inclusive Education and Special Education program. I have been working with kids in varied settings such as in classrooms, tutoring groups, one-on-one, in camps, and more, since I was in high school. While I tutor a broad range of subjects and grades, I am most passionate about teaching Reading and Math at the Elementary level. Part of the reason I am drawn to the field of education is because teachers must be life-long learners. I am aim to foster a love of learning in my student. This, I believe, leads to intrinsic motivation. In my spare time I enjoy reading, traveling, cooking, and staying active.
